1 . Emily Bhatnagar has always loved reading. “Growing up, I was really shy. So I turned to books,” she said. In 2019, her dad got cancer (癌症). It was very serious. Books became an even bigger support for Emily.

Emily has given books to many places. One is the Children’s Inn at the National Institutes of Health. Aisha Campbell is a director there. She says, “Donations like Emily’s Donations share a piece of the world with kids and families. They may not have experienced such things.”
